A multilayer ceramic capacitor is widely used as a component of mobilecommunication devices such as computers, PDAs, cellular phones, and thelike, as a multilayer ceramic capacitor is small-sized, secures highcapacity, and is easily mounted.

FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A′ in FIG. 1.

FIG. 3 is a magnified view of area P in FIG. 2.

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, a multilayer ceramic electronic component100 according to an exemplary embodiment may comprise a ceramic body 110including a dielectric layer 111 and internal electrodes 121 and 122,electrode layers 131A and 131B connected to the internal electrodes 121and 122, conductive resin layers 132A and 132B formed on the electrodelayers 131A and 131B and including a conductive metal 32A, a grapheneplatelet 32B and a base resin 32C.

Specifically, the multilayer ceramic electronic component 100 mayinclude the ceramic body 110 including the dielectric layer 111, firstand second internal electrodes 121 and 122 configured to face each otherwith the dielectric layer 111 interposed therebetween in the ceramicbody 110, the first electrode layer 131A configured to be electricallyconnected to the first internal electrode 121 and the second electrodelayer 131B configured to be electrically connected to the secondinternal electrode 122, and the first conductive resin layer 132A formedon the first electrode layer 131A and the second conductive resin layer132B formed on the second electrode layer 131B. The first conductiveresin layer 132A and the second conductive resin layer 132B may includethe conductive metal 32A, the graphene platelet 32B, and the base resin32C.

The first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B may be formedby applying an external electrode paste including the conductive metal32A powder, the graphene platelet 32B and the base resin 32C, and eachof the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B mayinclude 5-30 parts by weight of base resin (3), and 0.5-5 parts byweight of graphene platelet (1) based on 100 parts by weight ofconductive metal (2) powder.

The first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B may be formedby applying an external electrode paste in accordance with the exemplaryembodiment, and thus will be described in the description below.

The base resin 32C may be implemented by a material which has adhesiveproperties and shock absorption properties and is able to form a pastewhen mixed with the conductive metal 32A, but is not limited thereto.For example, the base resin 32C may include epoxy resin.

In the case in which the content of the base resin 32C is less than 5parts by weight, it may be difficult to manufacture a paste due to ashortage of resin and a decrease in phase stability, which may lead tophase separation or a change in viscosity, and the dispersibility ofmetal may also be degraded, which may cause a decrease in a filling rateand a degradation of density. In the case in which the content of baseresin 32C exceeds 30 parts by weight, the contact between metals maydegrade due to excessive resin content, which may increase resistivityand the resin area of the surface, and accordingly, in the case in whicha plating layer is formed after the first and second conductive resinlayers 132A and 132B are formed, there may be a problem of platinglessdefects.

Generally, in the case in which a conductive resin layer is disposed onan external electrode of a multilayer ceramic capacitor, the conductiveresin layer may be configured to cover the whole electrode layerconnected to an internal electrode, and current may flow through theconductive resin layer for electric conduction with outside.

The conductive resin layer may be formed with a conductive metal forsecuring electric conductivity and a base resin for shock absorption. Inthe case in which the conductive resin layer includes a base resin,durability against external stimuli such as bending of a multilayerceramic electronic component may improve, but resistivity may becomehigh compared to an electrode which does not include a base resin, andaccordingly, equivalent series resistance of a multilayer ceramicelectronic component may increase.

However, according to an exemplary embodiment, as the first and secondconductive resin layers 132A and 132B include the graphene platelet 32Bin addition to the conductive metal 32A powder and the base resin 32C,durability against external stimuli such as bending of a multilayerceramic electronic component may improve, and further, the grapheneplatelet may address the problem of increase of equivalent seriesresistance of a multilayer ceramic electronic component caused by thebase resin, thereby decreasing equivalent series resistance.

According to an exemplary embodiment, as the first and second conductiveresin layers 132A and 132B further include the graphene platelet 32B,conductivity may improve 1,000-100,000 times compared to a conventionalexternal electrode, and equivalent series resistance of a multilayerceramic capacitor may decrease by 30% compared to the prior art.

Specifically, as the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and132B includes between 0.5 and 7.5 parts by weight of the grapheneplatelet 32B based on 100 parts by weight of the conductive metal powder32A, equivalent series resistance of the multilayer ceramic capacitoraccording to the exemplary embodiment may be lowered.

In the case in which the content of the graphene platelet 32B is lessthan 0.5 part by weight, it may be impossible to implement themultilayer ceramic electronic component having relatively low equivalentseries resistance, and in the case in which the content exceeds 7.5parts by weight, the platingless defects or a reduction of adhesivestrength may occur when a plating layer is formed on an upper portion ofthe first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B.

In the case in which the content of graphene platelet 32 b above isrepresented as the content to be included in the external electrodepaste, it may be within a range from 0.4 wt % to 6.0 wt %. In the casein which the content is less than 0.4 wt %, it may be impossible toimplement the multilayer ceramic electronic component with relativelylow equivalent series resistance, and in the case in which the contentexceeds 6.0 wt %, the platingless defect or a reduction of adhesivestrength may occur when a plating layer is formed on an upper portion ofthe first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B.

In the case in which the content of the graphene platelet 32B exceeds6.0 wt %, the viscosity may increase for the shortage of resin in thefirst and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B, and accordingly,when the paste to form a conductive resin layer is coated on theexternal surface of the body, the corner of the external electrode maybecome thinner, which may cause a deterioration in moisture resistanceproperties and the problem of decline in reliability.

The graphene platelet 32B may be included in the first and secondconductive resin layers 132A and 132B in a content of 2.5 to 2.9 partsby weight based on 100 parts by weight of the conductive metal powder32A.

In the case in which the content of the graphene platelet 32B is 2.5 to2.9 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the conductive metalpowder 32A, the conductivity of the external electrode may improve, andthe effect of reducing equivalent series resistance of the multilayerceramic electronic component may further improve.

Referring to FIG. 3, in the conductive resin layers 31B and 32B, thegraphene platelet 32B may be dispersed in the base resin 32C and beabsorbed on the surface of the conductive metal 32A.

As the graphene platelet 32B may be evenly dispersed in the base resin32C, and in the conductive resin layers 132A and 132B, the increase ofequivalent series resistance of the multilayer ceramic electroniccomponent, caused by the base resin 32C, may be offset.

Specifically, by dispersing the graphene platelet 32B having lowresistivity and excellent electric conductivity in the base resin 32C,equivalent series resistance of the multilayer ceramic electroniccomponent may be decreased.

Also, in the conductive resin layers 132A and 132B, the grapheneplatelet 32B is dispersed in planar form.

As the graphene platelet 32B is dispersed in plate form in theconductive resin layers 132A and 132B, the specific surface area may belarge, and the effect of reduction in equivalent series resistance ofthe multilayer ceramic electronic component may be further improvedaccordingly.

To address the problem of an increase of equivalent series resistance ofa multilayer ceramic electronic component caused by a conductive resinlayer included in an external electrode, there has been an attempt toinclude a carbon nanotube (CNT) in a conductive resin layer.

The carbon nanotube is manufactured to include at least one of asingle-walled carbon nanotube and a multi walled carbon nanotube.

However, the carbon nanotube has a columnar shape, the inside of whichis filled or hollow, or has a pipe shape in which a passage is formed.Accordingly, in the case in which the content of a carbon nanotube isnot higher than a certain level, the effect of a reduction in equivalentseries resistance of a multilayer ceramic electronic component may beinsufficient.

Also, to help the contacting and tunneling between metals in theconductive resin layers, a dispersion of the external electrode pastemay be required.

However, in the case in which the content of a carbon nanotube is toohigh, to increase the effect of reduction of equivalent seriesresistance of a multilayer ceramic electronic component, there may be aproblem in dispersion of a carbon nanotube in the external electrodepaste.

Also, in the case in which the content of a carbon nanotube is too high,there may be a problem of a platingless defect or reduction of adhesivestrength may occur when a plating layer is formed on an upper portion ofa conductive resin layer.

Also, in the case in which the content of a carbon nanotube is too high,the content of base resin contained in the conductive resin layer may berelatively low, and accordingly, the effect of a reduction in shockabsorption by elasticity of a conductive resin layer may not beobtained.

However, according to an exemplary embodiment, by including the planargraphene platelet 32B having a large specific surface area in the firstand second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B, the effect ofreduction of equivalent series resistance of a multilayer ceramicelectronic component may be excellent.

In other words, as the graphene platelet 32B according to an exemplaryembodiment may have a planar shape and have a large specific surfacearea, the effect of reduction of equivalent series resistance of amultilayer ceramic electronic component may be excellent with only smallcontent of the graphene platelet 32B.

Also, as the graphene platelet 32B has electric property with only smallcontent thereof compared to a carbon nanotube, the graphene platelet maybe dispersed evenly when external electrode paste is manufactured, andaccordingly, reliability may become excellent.

Also, as the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132Bcontain a certain range of content of the graphene platelet 32B, theproblem of a platingless defect or a reduction of adhesive strength maynot occur when a plating layer is formed on the upper portion.

Also, even in the case in which the first and second conductive resinlayers 132A and 132B contain low content of the graphene platelet 32B,the effect of reduction in equivalent series resistance of a multilayerceramic electronic component may be obtained. Accordingly, the contentof base resin may be similar to that of the prior art, and the effect ofshock absorption by elasticity of a conductive resin layer may beobtained similarly to the prior art.

The length of a major axis of the graphene platelet 32B may range from0.2 nm to 10 μm, and the length of minor axis may range from 0.2 nm to10 μm, but are not limited thereto.

According to an exemplary embodiment, at least one or more of thegraphene platelets 32B may be disposed within the area of 1 μm×1 μm inthe first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B.

The measuring of the graphene platelet 32B may not be limited. Forexample, the graphene platelet 32B may be measured within the area of 1μm×1 μm in the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B.

For example, the graphene platelet 32B within the area of 1 μm×1 μm inthe first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B may bemeasured by scanning a cross section of the multilayer ceramic capacitorin a length-width direction with a transmission electron microscope(TEM).

Specifically, a 1 μm×1 μm area of the first and second conductive resinlayers 132A and 132B may be measured using a transmission electronmicroscope in the area of the first and second conductive resin layers132A and 132B extracted from the image of the cross section of a lengthand width direction (L-T), created by cutting the center of themultilayer ceramic capacitor in the width (W) direction.

FIG. 4 is a magnified view of a graphene platelet in the presentdisclosure.

Referring to FIG. 4, the graphene platelet 32B may include a pluralityof layered planar structures.

As the graphene platelet 32B includes a plurality of layered planarstructures, the specific surface area of each of the planar structuresmay be large, and accordingly, the effect of a reduction of equivalentseries resistance may be excellent with only small content of thegraphene platelet.

In other words, the graphene platelet 32B having low resistivity andexcellent electric conductivity has a planar structure with a largespecific surface area, and as the plurality of planar structures arelayered, the effect of reduction of equivalent series resistance of amultilayer ceramic electronic component may be excellent.

Also, even in the case in which the first and second conductive resinlayers 132A and 132B contain low content of the graphene platelet 32B,the effect of reduction of equivalent series resistance of a multilayerceramic electronic component may be obtained. Accordingly, the contentof base resin may be similar to that of the prior art, and the effect ofreduction of shock absorption by elasticity of a conductive resin layermay be obtained similarly to the prior art.

The conductive metal 32A may be one or more material selected from thegroup consisting of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), silver (Ag), andsilver-palladium (Ag—Pd), but is not limited thereto.

The material composing the first and second internal electrodes 121 and122 may not be limited. For example, the material may include one ormore of silver (Ag), lead (Pb), platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), and copper(Cu).

The first and second electrode layers 132A and 132B may be directlyconnected to the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 andsecure electric conduction between the first and second externalelectrodes 130A and 130B and the first and second internal electrodes121 and 122.

The first and second electrode layers 131A and 131B may includeconductive metal, and the conductive metal may be nickel (Ni), copper(Cu), palladium (Pd) or gold (Au), or alloy thereof, but is not limitedthereto.

The first and second electrode layers 131A and 131B may be sinteredelectrodes formed by sintering of a paste including conductive metal.

A plating layer (not illustrated) may be formed on the first and secondconductive resin layers 132A and 132B. The plating layer may include anickel-plated layer and a tin-plated layer, and the nickel-plated layermay be disposed on the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and132B, and the tin-plated layer may be disposed on the nickel-platedlayer.

The first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B may include70 wt % to 80 wt % of copper (Cu) as the conductive metal 32A accordingto the comparative examples and embodiment.

The above comparative example does not include a graphene platelet, andthe content of epoxy resin may be 11 wt %.

The embodiment may include 2 wt % of the graphene platelet 32B, and thecontent of epoxy resin in the embodiments 1, 2, and 3 may be 11 wt %, 13wt %, and 15 wt %, respectively.

The multilayer ceramic capacitor may be manufactured to have ‘3216’ size(length×width being 3.2 mm×1.6 mm) according to the comparative examplesand embodiment, and Table 1 shows the result of an average value andstandard deviation of equivalent series resistance of the multilayerceramic capacitor.

Referring to Table 1, the resistivity value after curing of a sheetcoated with an external electrode epoxy paste, the sheet beingmanufactured on the basis of embodiments 1, 2, and 3 that include thegraphene platelet 32B, turned out to be lower than the resistivity valuein the comparative examples of the prior art which does not include agraphene platelet.

Also, referring to Table 1, in the case of embodiments 1, 2, and 3including the graphene platelet 32B, the equivalent series resistancevalue of a multilayer ceramic capacitor reduced by 30% compared to theprior art which does not include a graphene platelet.

Further, in the case of embodiments 1, 2, and 3 including the grapheneplatelet 32B, the standard deviation of equivalent series resistancevalue of a multilayer ceramic capacitor is lower than that of the priorart which does not include a graphene platelet, and accordingly, amultilayer ceramic capacitor having more even electric properties may beimplemented.

The multilayer ceramic electrical component may be manufactured as belowaccording to an exemplary embodiment.

The dielectric layer 111 may be formed of a plurality of ceramic greensheets formed by coating a carrier film with slurry including a powderof a material such as barium titanate (BaTiO₃), or the like, and drying.

The ceramic green sheet may be manufactured by a slurry formed by mixingceramic powder, binder, and solvent, and manufacturing the slurry as aform of sheet having a thickness of a certain μm by a doctor blademethod.

Then, a conductive paste for an internal electrode including nickelpowder may be manufactured.

The type of glass may also not be limited, and a material having thesame component as that of glass used in manufacturing of an externalelectrode of a general multilayer ceramic capacitor may be used.

The first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B may be formedby coating the external surface of the first and second electrode layers131A and 131B with conductive resin composition including copper.

As the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and 132B include0.5 to 7.5 parts by weight of the graphene platelet 32B based on 100parts by weight of the conductive metal 32A powder, equivalent seriesresistance of the multilayer ceramic capacitor according to theexemplary embodiment may be lowered.

Preferably, 2.5 to 2.9 parts by weight of the graphene platelet 32B maybe included in the first and second conductive resin layers 132A and132B based on 100 parts by weight of the conductive metal 32A powder.
